Top 5 News Sources
I believe that staying informed is very important, in today’s world everything is very fast paced. It’s very easy to spread misinformation, especially with how much the internet has taken over the world. It makes me feel better if im getting my news from a reliable source that not only offer thorough evaluations, but also give the latest confirmed details. I would be happy to share my top five news sources and why I would recommend them.
1. The New York Times
Ever since I was given a subscription from my high school for The New York Times it’s been a go to source for a lot of my projects. I really like their investigative journalism and how deep they go when reporting. I’d like to believe the info is well researched, and their coverage on breaking news and long term events are reported on well. I like to just look at what going on around the world, international affairs have always interested me. The quality put into their articles make the subscription worth paying for.
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/
A bit of a switch up, but scrolling through the National Geographic articles is a great way to learn something about our world every day. There are also plenty of updates on serious topics like climate change, whats going on with wildlife, and scientific discoveries. The best part are the photos and the documentary’s they do, it makes hard to understand topics that I’d never pay attention to interesting. The environmental problems can connect to international events, its just a good source if you just want to know more in general.
3. ESPN
I like to keep up with sports, I don’t think it’s that important. It's easy to digest compared to some other, more rigid news sources that only focus on more serious topics. Their app is good for checking scores of games quickly, players injuries, whats happening before the game, etc. I’ve always really liked hockey, especially the Bruins and I’ve always thought their coverage of the NHL playoffs is really good. Im pretty sure you can buy a subscription to watch sports, but other than that everything within ESPN is very accesible.
4. TED
I’ve always liked TED Talks, it’s always been such a creative concept to me. I find the talks to be very insightful and filled with good information to live by. In terms of podcasts I personally think they’re the best, episodes like Inside The Mind Of A Master Procrastinator by Tim Urban and All It Takes Is 10 Mindful Minutes by Andy Puddicombe have changed the way I view life and the way I do things. The videos also involve plenty of scientific research that back up a lot of the tings they say, so I believe it’s credible.
5. Good Morning America
https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/
This is one that I haven’t really sat down and watched in many years but whenever I get the chance, it’s on. I remember waking up for school, hearing Michael Strahan and all the other cast members downstairs on the TV. I’d be able to sit and eat Frosted Flakes while the colorful blue and yellow theme would play and they’d be out in the street of New York doing something random, occasionally they’d actually talk about serious topics but it was far and few in between. This choice is more based off nostalgia, but I really still enjoy watching Good Morning America from time to time.
